The municipal government of Shanghai has set a goal for the city to emerge as a world-class international shipping center during the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-25).
Officials said on Thursday that by 2025, Shanghai will be also capable of multiple shipping-related accomplishments each year: handling more than 47 million TEUs (twenty-foot equivalent units) of containers at its ports each year; receiving 130 million passenger trips; and clearing 4.1 million metric tons of cargo at its airports.
